OK, this might be a stupid question, but I want to hear some opinions.
I have no particular career goals except to go to B-School at some later point in life.
This is for my junior summer, both offers are in NYC, but the BB Ops gig pays 47% more on an hourly basis.

BB Ops - great internal networking opportunities to get yourself into an FO role before you apply to business schools.
Not in the same building.
Both are fine but I would take Corp Fin F200 personally, I think it would be more interesting than Ops and if you apply for IBD / Consulting / rotational programs at F500 at a later point it would look better I think. Depending on the company it can be very accounting oriented etc and it's not necessarily fascinating work per se, but in my experience bankers and consultants look rather favourably at corp finance experience (whereas there is a big stigma associated with Ops in finance and in the US in particular). I've heard several bankers / consultants / PE associates stress how beneficial "industry experience" can be :). If you were set on S&T that might be different but given you're not sure what you want to do I'd take Corp Finance
It is not Accounting as far as I know. More like capital planning type of sub-division. And yeah, I don't want to go into S&T.
Both are shitty jobs. Take the one with the most free time to study for GMAT and do something interesting with your life. That is a crappy way to graduate school, Ops LOL!
What's the target SB-to-MS to get a troll IP-banned? 0 SB for 25 Monkey shits in one month seems like enough proof....
